Grief and Loss
Grief is a natural response to loss, but it can feel overwhelming and unpredictable.
You may experience a range of emotions including sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, anxiety, or confusion. These feelings can come and go and may feel especially intense around anniversaries or reminders of the person or situation.
Grief can show up in many ways, changes in behaviour, sleep, ability to go to work, deal with pressure, commit to social events. For children it can manifest in school attendance, difficulty going to sleep, waking in the night, separation worries or difficulties with emotional regulation, due to them struggling to verbalising how they feel.
Grief counselling offers a safe space to explore emotions without judgement and at a pace that feels right for you.
Therapy can support with:
- Processing loss and difficult emotions
- Understanding grief responses in children, young people, and adults
- Coping with anniversaries and triggers
- Supporting emotional regulation and adjustment
- Finding ways to remember and maintain continuing bonds
- Rebuilding routines, stability, and meaning

How counselling can help
Counselling provides people with a supportive space to understand anxiety and their anxious feelings, recognise when their body is going into flight/fight response and develop practical coping strategies to help reduce the sense of overwhelm.
